Pain And Pleasure Lyrics

Pain And Pleasure lyrics

And so my story winds on down toward an ending that's been found to
come
whenever all is said and done. I've lived my life and taken chances and
if
some were strange by standards that were less important than my
needs,
then I guess I could be crooked, evil, bent and twisted, looking down
upon
the strings I tried to pull. But I see the strings extending up and
down
and never ending as we dance around our selves and jerk  to all the
tunes
that only  we hear and the voices only we fear each inside an island
all
alone. But the contact that we do make, as we give and take abuse,
stays
and its value only multiplies. Yes I'm alone, but not forgotten, for
each
comes and sees me often, sitting on a seat beside my bed, and we laugh
and
reminisce about a life that once was bliss before an act of passion
made
us part. Of course they'll always be together, but their bond is made
of
leather not the flesh and blood it used to be. They're still full of
life
and healing, but it has a different feeling and only for the few that
seek
their sort of pain and pleasure when they merge and give into
insistent
urgency that lives for seconds at a time. For pain and pleasure
are the
twins that slightly out of focus spin around us till we finally
understand
that everything that gives us pleasure also gives us pain to
measure it
by, and I also realize...that all our lives we love illusion,
neatly
caught between confusion and the need to know we are
alive.
